Crucified for Love
Crucify, "To mortify, to punish (one's body) or control (one's physical desires and passions) or subdue (the flesh)".
As Johnny Thornton recounts, "The thought of semi naked vampish woman on a cross just came to me then I decided to have a wild sky with the sun breaking through. This was painted by Gordon Aldred who went on to be the scenic artist on The Lion King, Shrek the musical and a host of other stage productions."
"I have been asked when I was out socially, "So you're a photographer, where's your camera?" My answer was simple "If I was a carpenter would you expect me to carry my saw?""
